Specification
Network
| Technology The mobile network technology the phone uses, such as GSM, HSPA or LTE. It determines which types of networks the phone can connect to. | GSM / HSPA / LTE |
| 2G bands The second-generation mobile network bands the phone can use for calls and basic data. Support for more bands means better compatibility with different networks. | GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 - SIM 1 & SIM 2 |
| 3G bands The third-generation mobile network bands the phone supports for calls and mobile data. More supported bands mean better compatibility with different networks. | HSDPA 850 / 900 / 2100 |
| 4G bands The fourth-generation (LTE) mobile network bands the phone supports. More supported bands mean better compatibility and coverage on different networks. | 1, 3, 5, 8, 38, 40, 41 |
| Speed The data speed the phone can support on mobile networks. Higher speeds mean faster downloads and uploads when the network supports them. | HSPA 42.2/5.76 Mbps, LTE Cat4 150/50 Mbps |
Body
| Dimensions The height, width and thickness of the phone, usually measured in millimetres. Smaller dimensions generally make a phone easier to hold. | 171.5 x 77.5 x 9.2 mm |
| Build The materials and construction used for the phone body, such as the front glass, back and frame. | Glass front, plastic back, plastic frame |
| SIM The SIM card type and number the phone accepts, such as Nano-SIM or dual SIM. It determines how many mobile connections can be used. | Dual SIM (Nano-SIM, dual stand-by) |
Display
| Type The kind of display panel used in the phone. Different panel types affect colour, contrast and power use. | IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors |
| Size The diagonal size of the display, measured in inches from corner to corner. | 6.82 inches, 112.5 cm2 (~83.9% screen-to-body ratio) |
| Resolution The number of pixels in the display, shown as width by height. Higher resolution generally means a sharper image. | 720 x 1640 pixels (~263 ppi density) |
| Features Additional functions included for that part of the phone, such as special modes or enhancements. The list shows which extra functions are supported. | 90Hz |
Platform
| OS The operating system software that runs the phone and its apps. Its version affects features, security and app compatibility. | Android 11, XOS 7.6 |
| Chipset The main processor platform that powers the device. It controls performance, power efficiency and supported features. | Mediatek Helio G85 (12 nm) |

Memory
| Card slot A special slot for inserting a memory card. Memory cards allow you to expand the phone's built-in memory (or in the past these slots have been used to add some missing features such as Wi-Fi connectivity). Memory cards have different capacities and are used to store and transfer files between compatible devices. There are several types of memory cards. The most popular and frequently used by mobile phone manufacturers is microSD; however, up until recently Sony Ericsson exclusively used the Memory Stick Micro (M2) card type developed by Sony. | microSDXC (dedicated slot) |

| RAM The memory the phone uses to run apps and keep them open in the background, measured in gigabytes. More RAM generally helps multitasking run smoothly. | 4/6GB |
Camera
| Triple A camera is a device that captures light and processes it into an image. It does this through a lens, which focuses the light onto a light-sensitive surface where a picture is formed.

The Infinix Hot 10s is a 2021 budget phone, and that framing matters more than any single spec. It pairs a huge 6.82-inch 90Hz screen with a 6,000mAh battery for very little money. In 2026 nobody buys this phone new — it is a used buy only, and the price on this page reflects what a Pakistani retailer lists it for today, not a launch price.
Design and Display
The 6.82-inch IPS LCD runs at 720 x 1640 pixels with a 90Hz refresh rate, so scrolling feels smoother than the price suggests. The body is a glass front with a plastic back and frame, and the fingerprint sensor sits on the back where your index finger lands. The screen is big, but it is only HD — text and video look soft next to a Full HD phone, and MobileDokan lists no brightness figure or protection glass.
Performance
The Helio G85 with 4GB or 6GB of RAM was a budget chip even in 2021, and it shows in 2026. Daily use and light apps run fine, but heavy games and multitasking push it to its limit. The 6GB variant is the only one worth buying, and even then only as a second phone.
Camera
The rear setup is a 48MP main camera with two helpers that do very little.
- Main 48MP (wide, f/1.8): the only lens that produces photos worth keeping, helped by PDAF and a quad-LED flash.
- Depth 2MP (f/2.4): there for portrait blur, and it adds almost nothing in practice.
- Third low-light sensor: MobileDokan lists it only as an “unknown camera” — GSMArena calls it a QVGA sensor, so treat it as a token extra.
- Selfie 8MP (wide): fine for video calls, with its own dual-LED flash for dark rooms.
Video tops out at 1080p at 30fps on both cameras, and MobileDokan’s own camera rating of 3 out of 10 says the rest.
Battery and Charging
The 6,000mAh battery is the biggest number on the spec sheet, and it is the reason this phone still makes sense as a second phone. Two days of light use is realistic, and standby drain is modest. MobileDokan states no charging wattage, so we will not claim one — and the phone charges over microUSB, the old port, not USB-C.
Software
The Hot 10s launched on Android 11 with XOS 7.6 and it never moved on. It has had no security patches for years, and that matters if you use banking apps or keep sensitive data on your phone. Anyone who cares about software updates should not buy this as their main phone.
Price in Pakistan
The expected price on this page is Rs. 20,999, taken from zmobiles.pk’s current listing — mymobile.pk has no listing for this phone. This is a used-market price for a 2021 phone, stated openly rather than dressed up as a new-phone price. For comparison, the Bangladesh official price converts to about Rs. 28,999, but that is a launch-era figure and not what the phone sells for in Pakistan today.
All storage options — Expected: Rs. 20,999 (zmobiles.pk listing; mymobile.pk has no listing)
| Model | Infinix Hot 10s |
| Price | PKR. 20,999 (Expected) |
| Display | 6.82″ IPS LCD 720×1640 pixels |
| RAM | 4 GB / 6 GB |
| ROM | 64 GB / 128 GB |
| Released | 12 May 2021 |
Buying in Pakistan
- Check the exact model number and the IMEI on DIRBS before paying — PTA status varies from unit to unit.
- Confirm the battery health percentage on a used unit; a 2021 battery may have lost a good share of its capacity.
- Buy from a seller who offers a checking warranty, and confirm whether the unit is PTA-approved or Non-PTA before you hand over money.
Final Verdict: Only as a cheap second phone
Buy the Hot 10s only as a cheap second phone — for calls, video and a battery that keeps going. As a main phone in 2026 it is too slow, too out of date and too unsupported to recommend. At Rs. 20,999 expected, it is fair value for that one job and no other.
